Selsun Suspension

Product Overview

Selsun Suspension is an anti-dandruff shampoo formulated to effectively treat dandruff and related scalp conditions. It contains Selenium sulfide as the active ingredient, which works to combat the underlying causes of dandruff, such as fungal infections and excessive oil production. This medicated shampoo provides relief from itching, flaking, and irritation of the scalp, leaving the hair and scalp feeling clean, refreshed, and free from dandruff.

Uses

Selsun Suspension is indicated for the treatment of dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and tinea versicolor, a fungal infection that affects the skin, including the scalp. It helps to eliminate dandruff flakes, reduce scalp itchiness and irritation, and prevent the recurrence of dandruff when used regularly.

How to Use

Shake the bottle well before use. Wet the hair and scalp thoroughly. Apply a small amount of Selsun Suspension to the scalp and massage gently to form a lather. Leave it on the scalp for 2-3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water. Use twice weekly for the first two weeks, then once weekly or as directed by your healthcare provider.

How it Works

The active ingredient in Selsun Suspension, Selenium sulfide, works by inhibiting the growth of Malassezia, a yeast-like fungus that contributes to the development of dandruff and other scalp conditions. It also helps to reduce the production of excess oil on the scalp, which can further exacerbate dandruff symptoms. By targeting the underlying causes of dandruff, Selenium sulfide effectively relieves dandruff-related symptoms and prevents their recurrence.

Dosage and Administration

For best results, use Selsun Suspension as directed by your healthcare provider or follow the instructions on the product label. Avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Discontinue use if irritation develops and consult your healthcare provider.
